The Baer House is a historic house located at 1010 Rock Street in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Description and history

It is a simple two-story L-shaped masonry structure, with a cross-gable roof configuration and a porch at the crook of the L. The front-facing gable has Craftsman-style brackets and half-timbering effects. The porch has a shed roof, and is supported by groups of short box columns set on tall brick piers, with a brick balustrade. The house was designed by the architect Charles L. Thompson, and was built about 1915.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 22, 1982.[1] It was noted to have increased historical significance due to the finding of the original drawings for the home.
